Traditional Chinese medicine emotional health preservation method
Empathy system
Empathy is a diversion. Su Wen's theory of qi transformation of empathy and separation points out: "Ancient diseases were only caused by qi transformation of empathy and separation, so you can make a wish", and "wishing by" therapy is a method to transfer the patient's spirit, so as to adjust the patient's qi and keep the spirit inside to treat diseases, so it is also called "qi transformation of empathy and separation". That is to say, through words, actions and other blessing methods, patients' enthusiasm can be mobilized, a good mental state can be formed, essence and qi can be adjusted, qi and blood can be supplemented, and patients' own ability to eliminate evil can be mobilized. After some people get sick, they tend to focus on the disease, think about it all day, and fall into depression, trouble and sadness. For this kind of patients, speech induction can be used to divert their attention, relieve their ideological worries, turn internal pain into external pain, turn heart disease into leg disease, and often get the effect of not using drugs.
Phase system is a kind of emotional nursing method which uses one emotion to suppress another, thus diluting or even eliminating bad emotions and maintaining a good mental state. For example, Su Wen, Yin and Yang should be put forward according to the relationship between the five elements, just like people. "Anger hurts the liver, and sorrow wins anger; Happiness is sad, fear is better than happiness; Thinking hurts the spleen, and anger overcomes thinking; Sad for the lungs, joy wins sorrow; Fear of hurting the kidney overcame fear. Zhu Danxi further proposed: anger, overcome with fear, solve with fear; Happy, overcome with fear, solve with anger; Worry is joy, victory is thinking; Think, overcome with anger, and solve with joy; Fear, overcome with thinking, solve with worry; Surprise, overcome with worry, solve with fear; Sadness is overcome by fear and resolved by anger. " In clinical practice, Zhang Chuang created many effective methods, and clearly advocated: "Sorrow can cure anger, happiness with bitter words can cure sadness, and jokes and insulting words can be used for entertainment;" Fear can cure happiness, and the words of forcing death are frightening; Anger can heal the mind and touch it with insulting words; Thinking can cure fear, in order to take care of what he wants to do. "The above-mentioned five-element model of winning by emotion is a unique emotional treatment and nursing method of traditional Chinese medicine. Using these methods well will effectively improve the quality of emotional nursing.
Reasoning and inspiration
Through positive reasoning, patients realize that emotional imbalance is one of the important factors, and "harmony with emotions" and "moderate emotions" are the basis of healthy longevity, thus inspiring and guiding patients to consciously get rid of anger and reconcile emotions. But reasoning and guidance should also vary from person to person, so as to be targeted, lively, patient and meticulous. To be reasonable and enlightened, nurses must gain the trust of patients, be sincere and enthusiastic, be sympathetic and responsible to patients, and pay attention to keeping patients' privacy confidential. In this way, they can achieve the purpose of reasoning, inspiring people, moving with emotion, reasoning with reason, drawing inferences from others and making it clear. So as to change the mental and physical conditions of patients.
Persuasion and guidance
By talking with patients, we can first gain the trust of patients, get close to patients and find out the real cause. Su Wen's Theory of Empathy and Changing Qi pointed out: "Anyone who wants to seek medical treatment must ask where he lives, count his feelings and follow his wishes." There are many reasons for emotional illness, which must be closely related to patients. Once the cause is removed and the stimulation disappears, the viscera and qi will be coordinated. Therefore, nurses should get along with patients: "the questioner is not bored, and the patient is not bored", so as to know in detail the root cause of the disease, the "evolution process" of the disease development, the emotional state of the patient before and after the illness, especially the drastic changes in thoughts and emotions after the illness, and further understand whether the patient's attitude towards the disease is nervous, afraid, fearful or optimistic. Whether there is a strong will to overcome the disease, whether you can understand the mental state and practical difficulties of the patients' families. Only in this way can you effectively do a good job of patient's ideological guidance, eliminate all kinds of negative factors, establish a good emotional state, and thus receive better treatment results.
Follow your feelings and desires.
Obeying the patient's will and emotions and meeting his physical and mental needs is "obeying emotions." In the process of illness, patients often have abnormal emotions. In this regard, it is helpful for your physical and mental health to let your feelings go first and follow your intentions. Therefore, the psychological desire of patients should be analyzed and treated in nursing. If it is reasonable and conditions permit, try to satisfy their desires or evils, such as creating conditions to change their environment or expressing sympathy, understanding and support for their ideas. For those false and unrealistic desires, such as thinking, lust, evil thoughts, indulgence and absurdity, it is natural not to indulge. But through persuasion and education, we should deal with it in good faith. Especially when you are worried about your illness, you can tell the patient relevant medical science knowledge, help him eliminate doubts, reduce the ideological burden, give a warm reception to the newly admitted patients, and introduce the environment and its related systems. For patients with serious illness, we should patiently explain to them and try our best to reduce their psychological anxiety and pessimism. For patients who have completely lost their ability to live, the mental pressure is enormous and full of worries. In this regard, we should take care of them comprehensively in life and help them strengthen their confidence and courage in life.
Qigong regulates the brain
Qigong exercise is the precious wealth of traditional medicine and plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of human diseases. As far as the essence of Qigong is concerned, psychological adjustment plays a leading role. It emphasizes that "quietness" is an inhibitory process that eliminates internal and external interference, reduces all kinds of stimulating reactions and feelings to the minimum pressure, and makes the brain enter a special state. Relying on the protection of this inhibition, the dysfunction of cerebral cortex caused by excessive excitement can be corrected. The specific method of qigong exercise is to regulate and control the physiological activities in the body with will and exercise the positive role of the body with mind to resist the interference of emotional factors. Therefore, Qigong exercise is essentially a self-exercise of mental and thinking activities. Therefore, in nursing, it will undoubtedly play an important role in mood regulation to guide patients to do qigong exercise according to their illness.
Pathogenesis and treatment of emotion
(A) the relationship between emotion and health
Emotional activity is produced by viscera essence, which is very close to the normal health of human body.
1, normal mood, harmonious dirty qi
Among the seven emotions, moderate happiness is very beneficial to human health. It can regulate spirit, forget troubles, circulate health, unblock qi and blood, promote human life activities and normal emotional activities, regulate dirty qi, help health and resist evil, thus enhancing human disease resistance and preventing diseases.
Because emotion is produced by the qi of zang-fu organs, the change of emotion will in turn have a corresponding impact on dirty qi. Generally speaking; Harmonious emotions can reach organs and promote their functional activities. Because: "Qi is relaxed but not depressed, so that the whole body is unobstructed, and depression is contrary to harmony" ("Red Furnace Points Snow"), when normal emotions occur, dirty qi will also be unobstructed in Shu Da. Thereby enhancing functional activities.
2, abnormal mood, internal injury to viscera
Abnormal emotional changes do great harm to human body. It is not only the main factor that causes diseases, but also an important factor that aggravates diseases. Because emotional activities are produced by visceral activities, the abnormality of seven emotions is beyond the scope of physiological regulation. It will cause dysfunction of qi and blood in viscera, and lead to visceral diseases, such as anger hurting the liver, happiness and sadness, thinking about hurting the spleen, worrying about the lungs, and fear of hurting the kidney. Therefore, excessive emotions tend to aggravate the condition. The process of disease is the process of imbalance of yin and yang, qi and blood in human organs. Excessive emotion can damage the essence of zang-fu organs, so the yin-yang qi and blood of zang-fu organs have no owner. When qi is injured, the viscera, yin and yang, qi and blood will be out of balance. Therefore, in the course of the disease, if there are excessive emotional changes, it will aggravate the disorder of Yin, Yang, Qi and blood of the zang-fu organs and aggravate the condition.
(B) methods to prevent diseases caused by seven emotions
In order to prevent the seven emotions from causing diseases, we must be optimistic, reconcile emotional changes and avoid excessive emotions.
1. Being optimistic is one of the important factors of health and longevity. Optimism can promote people's physiological functions and is beneficial to health, so we should use optimism to overcome other negative emotions that are not conducive to human health. People's personality is different, but no matter what kind of personality, they can gradually cultivate optimistic personality and promote health and longevity through exercise and edification in life. In addition, be good at resolving troubles and troubles. It is impossible for a person not to encounter troubles and troubles in life. The key is to treat this kind of thing correctly, handle it properly and get rid of it in time. The way to get rid of it is to take a step back and think about it. This is actually a self-comforting method and has a positive effect on relieving troubles. The second is to talk and eliminate troubles. When your troubles can't be alleviated by retrogression, you should talk in time, listen to the comfort of others and eliminate your troubles. Eliminating troubles and creating a peaceful mind are the premise of optimism, which is of great significance for maintaining an optimistic mood.
2. Avoid excessive emotions.
Emotional activity is an integral part of human physiological function. Harmonious emotions generally do not cause diseases, but are beneficial to human physiological activities. Only excessive emotions can become pathogenic factors and harm the human body. Therefore, Chinese medicine attaches great importance to emotional changes and believes that diseases caused by seven emotions can be prevented by reconciling emotions and avoiding excessive emotions.
Joy and anger are the first of the seven emotions, joy is more important than joy, and anger is suitable for abstinence. However, excessive happiness will be sad and gas-consuming, and moderate happiness will promote the physiological function of the human body. Anger is the main cause of disease, people are full of anger, and anger hurts the body. Therefore, in the process of fitness and disease prevention, predecessors summed up two basic methods to stop and control anger. One is to control emotions with reason, that is, to overcome emotional impulses with reason, so that anger is not born, and the other is to cultivate one's own nature with "tolerance", that is, to have an open mind, noble sentiments, good cultivation, and to be patient but not impatient when things happen. However, when anger is uncontrollable, it should be vented and revealed in time to avoid depression and illness.
Melancholy and sadness are another kind of emotions that are harmful to human body. Will damage the spirit, weaken the body's disease resistance, thus attracting pathogenic factors, to be overcome. In daily life and work, we should pay attention to training ourselves, so that they can acquire a cheerful personality and an optimistic spirit, and overcome their sadness with an optimistic attitude.
Thinking is one of the seven emotions and the main function of the heart. Moderate thinking can strengthen the heart and brain, which is beneficial and harmless to the human body; However, excessive and improper thinking often causes harm to the human body, leading to mental fatigue, stagnation of temper, dizziness, palpitation, insomnia, dreaminess, anorexia, abdominal distension and other symptoms. So pay attention to the right amount, not too much. For example, the key to make up lessons for health is to "think less and nourish the mind", that is, to warn people to think hard and use their brains, to exercise restraint and not to overdo it. The ways to save thoughts are mainly to pay attention to the use of brain science, to regulate the mind and brain with exercise, to control fatigue and to use brain time. Secondly, we should use rationality to control thinking and effectively reduce some unnecessary thinking.
Panic is harmful to human body. Panic leads to confusion, and fear leads to depression. Panic can lead to anxiety, unstable kidney qi, palpitation, chills, insomnia, incontinence and even abnormal expression. People's fear of sudden death is more harmful to the human body, which can make the human body suffer from qi disorder, blood gas disorder and yin and yang failure, leading to serious illness and even life-threatening. It can be seen that panic is one of the important factors of emotional illness, and prevention and avoidance should be paid attention to in health preservation and disease prevention. Ways to prevent panic and fear: First, consciously exercise yourself, cultivate a brave and strong character, and prevent panic and disease. The second is to avoid contact with factors and environments that are easy to cause panic and prevent panic.

Foods rich in manganese include soybeans, lentils, eggplant, taro, radish, spinach and green leafy vegetables. Tea, nuts and cereals are important sources of manganese.
